Apanteles ronaldmurilloi Fern dez-Triana, sp. n.adrianachavarriae species-group This group comprises nine species with mesofemur, metafemur and all or most of metatibia dark brown to black; pterostigma with thin brown borders, centrally white or translucid; and mediotergite 1 with strong longitudinal striations. The group is likely to be artificial, at least partially, and it may end being part of a larger group (including the current joserasi javierobandoi groups). However, morphology, host data and DNA barcoding (Fig. 1), provide some support for most of its component species; and it seemsReview of Apanteles sensu stricto (Hymenoptera, Braconidae, Microgastrinae)…better to keep this group separated for the time being. Hosts: Attevidae, Crambidae, Elachistidae, and Tortricidae. One of the species within this group, A. felipechavarriai, is only known from a female in poor condition and cannot be keyed out using morphology alone beyond couplet 3 of the key below, thus barcoding data was used to distinguish that species from the remainder.
